Speeches by Whitby.

“According to modelling from the National Energy System Operator, gas will still set the price of electricity 30% of the time by 2030, despite most of the energy being produced from renewables. Solar and wind are far cheaper than other forms of energy, and it is right that households across the UK, and in Derbyshire Dal…”

“I would be more than happy with local authorities having the capacity to limit holiday lets and so on—that is not a bad idea at all. It should not be too much to ask that a young person can live in the community that they grew up in.”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Ms Butler. I thank the hon. Member for Mid Dunbartonshire (Susan Murray) for securing this important debate. Young people face challenges with housing in every part of the country, and in rural communities such as Derbyshire Dales there are compounding pressures of exorbi…”

“I strongly welcome the Government’s amendments and support the live consultation on these matters. Social media has unfortunately become central to childhood, and the negatives are massively outweighing any positives. Even when social media is at its most benign, children are spending 40, 50 or maybe 60 hours a week on…”

“Sure Start delivered long-term health benefits, with the Institute for Fiscal Studies finding that it reduced the number of hospitalisations of young people with mental health-related causes by 50%. It is therefore appropriate for the Department of Health and Social Care to support our Best Start family hubs. Healthy B…”

“9. What steps his Department is taking to increase the roll-out of Healthy Babies funding to local authorities.”

“The second-hand market was something I was going to ask about. Are we going to get to mass adoption of EVs without Government intervention in the second-hand market?”

“Marc, you said that the three to five-year-old second-hand market is the best performing. Do we need more incentives to help that market?”

“Have grants had an effect on manufacturers that have not been able to get it?”

“But the solutions are there.”

“We will be coming on to those.”

“What is the intervention in the second-hand market going to look like?”

“They are so non-standard. For me anyway, but there you go.”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Mr Efford. I am grateful to my hon. Friend the Member for Peterborough (Andrew Pakes) for giving me the opportunity to talk about our public baths and lidos, and the positive effect they have on our local communities. This year, the outdoor swimming pool in Hathersage wil…”

“Has the take-up of EVs so far been mostly among enthusiastic adopters, or have inroads been made into a more representative consumer base?”

“Grants have been around for roughly 15 years, on and off. How effective have they been in driving the transition to EVs?”

“Has it extended as more cars have come into that higher tier? It has been a slow burn, has it not?”

“Is it encouraging people who were going to buy anyway? Is that what you are saying, to some extent?”

“Towns across Derbyshire Dales such as Bakewell lack any connection to the rail network, leaving the 13 million people who travel to the Peak district mainly reliant on cars. Reinstating the peaks and dales line would be more environmentally friendly, help young people to get to work and education, and make it easier fo…”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Dr Huq. I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Rushcliffe (James Naish) for securing the debate. In Derbyshire Dales, we quarry the stone used to build new homes, produce the cement that keeps our buildings standing and have the outstanding natural landscapes that support …”
